Email isn't exactly this type of walled-garden social however, so it's not an apt comparison.

Email isn't exactly this type of walled-garden social however, so it's not an apt comparison.
- illumin8 15y agoThat's why I said social is not like email. I'm more comparing the Google+ rollout to Wave, since some of the features seem to be similar to Wave.
- oldstrangers 15y agoI was referring to "This thing needs to be free and massively available like Gmail."
- illumin8 15y agoYeah massively available like Gmail - I meant after it opened up from invite-only status. Email is easy to bootstrap because any client can talk using SMTP. Social does not have a protocol - although that might be cool if it did so we didn't have the "all your data are belong to us" problems of Facebook and Google.
